My Husqvarna 128 LD weed eater bogs down and quits running when I am trying to use it. what could be the problem?
Dirty air filter, dirty fuel system, ie carb, lines, fuel tank. Poor air fuel mixture srew adjustments.
I REPLACED EVERYTHING SAME PROBLEM. WHAT FIXED WAS A NEW SPARK PLUG. IT WILL ONLY RUN ON A NGK BMR6A. NO OTHER PLUG WILL WORK.
That did it! I tried everything else, carb, fuel filter, air filter, different brand plug, etc. the NGK BMR6A fixed it! Runs like new - thanks!
Same here - new carb, air filter, fuel filter, checked spark arrestor - fixed it with the spark plug recommended in the manual - Champion RCJ6Y
This fixed mine as well!! Thanks for that!
Mine still won't stay running when I give it full throttle I've changed everything on

My 128LD was doing the same thing and I found the throttle cable was too long (maybe stretched).I fixed it by on the trigger end cutting a new groove for the cable sheath to catch in.Worked well!
Carburetor Adjustment Screws "High" and "Low". Use tamper proof "Splined Carb Tool part # 530035560", available on eBay $8 (Fits some Husqvarna 128LD Trimmers and also Poulan Wild Thing Chainsaw carburetors). Some other shapes of tamper proof screws were used also, I'm told. Look at your screws and match the tool to your shaped screws. Numerous video's are available on youtube.com instructing how to adjust carburetor. "High" screw likely too rich or too lean. Use small 1/8 turn adjustments and remember original position of adjustor screw.
I've got the same problem. I've probably only used it 15 times. I would expect more from a Consumer Digest Best Buy.
When the problem first occurred, it seemed to perform better when the gas tank is completely full. Now it doesn't matter.
Check your spark arrestor...

These trimmers are junk..... I have been through the mill replacing things... JUNK...!!!
Big mistake buying ANY Husqvarna products from lawn mowers to sewing machines... My wife had a HQ sewing maching and nothing but problems.....Very poor quality control..!!!! U.S. isn't the only country that makes lousy products...!
